Brunei joined the UN on 21 September 1984. The decision was aimed at gaining recognition for its sovereignty and full independence. Accession took place during the 39th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, with the Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah emphasising that UN membership would raise global awareness of the country's existence. Membership in the UN provided a platform for Brunei to voice its aspirations and views on international and local issues.[2]
